Hello dear sir!
Allow me to remove your confusion please.
First of all, I would like to apprise you that ASF is no more a subsidiary of the Ministry of Defence (MOD). There was a section in the GHQs responsible for looking after the affairs of this force but, currently, it's the Cabinet Division responsible to look after the affairs of this force.
Secondly, while joining this force, factor into the following:
1. Physical training: You'll have to go through the mandatory physical training;
2. You can be posted anywhere in the country. If you're a female then you'll get your home station as a matter of federal government's policy;
3. Duty rosters are female friendly;
4. Leave is not that big deal, this chap got leave for04 time even during the span of 02 months (in training)
and,
5. It's a small but very efficient and 'clean' force with nil or very marginal corruption.
Now, let me introduce its negative points:
First, you'll have to work under the relevant military rules and regulations in terms of discipline but the perks and privileges will not be that of even a Police inspector. Pak Army reigns supreme there and its personnel will be having a strong grip over the senior positions of CSO at al. Moreover, it's chief and Dy. Chief comes from the Pak Army.
Furthermore, it's a force in the real sense of the term, it's not a joke like Police, FIA and IB.
Having said this, I would like you to analyse the situation whether you're after a service for the sake of service or otherwise? The ball is in your court now.
Good luck!
P.S: This chap resigned from the ASF as Inspector in 2012 for a different reason ��
